This Kontakt instrument uses sounds sampled from various 80's samplers and 80's synths.

In creating this slection of sounds I wanted to provide an instrument that will have a wide range of sounds that will hopefully come in usefull in various studio situations. Some users of Zed Volume 1 have stated it has come in very handy in some studio sessions and a sound contained has rescued a session.

Over 1.5GB of samples compressed to just over a GB using NI's compression and well over 200 presets ready for your musical productions or tweek away using the graphical user interface.

The libraries of Vol1 and Vol2 do have a lower fi vibe to them due to the nature of the older samplers some of the sounds have come from. I think it is true older samplers do have a certain magic to them and vibe.

Graphical user interface has been designed by Anders Hedstrom (Flavours of Lime).

The output from the samplers was connected to a series of vintage valve pre-amps before sampling for use in Kontakt.

The sounds in this collection will be suited to most styles of music from ambient/electronica to dance music.

This Kontakt instrument uses sounds sampled into a Casio FZ-1 sampler, various 80's samplers and 80's synths and drum machines.

Over 1.5GB of samples compressed to just over a GB using NI's compression and over 300 presets ready for your musical productions or tweek away using the graphical user interface.

I have been a user of the FZ-1 for many years and love the way it adds 'that something' to anything sampled into it.

The output from the samplers was connected to a series of vintage valve pre-amps before sampling for use in Kontakt.

If you like sounds and drums suitable for Depeche Mode/New Wave tracks, John Foxx, old rave, 80's disco, modern dance, abstract experimental electronica, chillout, Film score (check Replicant demo below for Blade Runner type sounds) then this collection of sounds is for you.

Zed80 comes with hundreds of great drum sounds which have a great vibe to them and they have all been mapped into ready to use kits. They are perfect for all types of electronic music production (check demo's to hear just a small selection of the drums available in this instrument).

There are lots of juicy bass sounds both analogue and digital aswell as lots of great pads and strings, organs, werli piano's, stabs, hits, percussion, weird efx, vocal synths... lots and lots of sounds.

All sounds are loaded into memory at the same time and then selected from a simple drop down list which makes sample banks selection quick, easy and fun.
